According to BikeRadar, the MBUK Eliminator dual slalom was neck and neck, with no clear favourite emerging. In the end it was Prokop who grabbed the win, Rinderknecht was 2nd, Wichman 3rd.

Joost crushed the hopes of all Britain mountainbike-enthousiasts, by eliminating Gee Atherton in 1/4 final. The Boost lost his semi final against Prokop and was up against Lopes in the small final.

In the first run Lopes' chain snapped, allowing The Boost to do some crazy jumps, including his much liked, signature bar hump. Lopes won the second run but he couldn't make up the regulatory 2 seconds delay, caused by equipment failure.

Prokop won the big final quit easily, beating Rinderknecht both runs.
